"How
To Re-String Your Guitar And Double It's Life"
If
you're finding yourself constantly breaking strings and having to
change them every time you play -- here's an awesome trick to make
your strings last 3 times as long!
When
you re-string your guitar, most people simply thread the string
through the tuning peg and start to tighten!
This
is great -- if you want to HALVE the life of your strings!
The
trick is all in the threading! When you simply place your string
through the tuning peg hold and tighten, you have just created the
highest tension, eliminated any form of slack and doubled your chances
of snapping the string when you go to break it in.
Give
this a go...
The
trick is not to thread the string through the tuning peg on the
first thread. What you do is gently wrap the string around the tuning
peg 3 or 4 times over -- THEN thread the string through the hole.
By
doing this you allow more slack in your string, reduce tension and
literally double the life of your strings.
It
provides your guitar with a heavier grip on the string which also
prevents your strings going out of tune easily.
Here's
what I mean...
...see
how the string is wrapped several times around the peg before threading
it through the hole. This is how you make your strings last longer!
Pretty
simple trick -- but give that a go next time you re-string your
guitar and I guarantee it will last!
